Parent to Child Relationship:Issue

Hi,

I am trying to display all accounts, and for each account, the first and the last name of each contact associated with that account.
I am trying below APEX code.
List <Account> Res = [Select Account.Name, (Select Contact.FirstName,Contact.LastName from Account.contacts) from Account];
For(Account a:Res) {
//System.debug('Account Name:' +a.name);
//System.debug('Contact FirstName:' +contact.firstname); 
//System.debug('Contact Last Name:' +contact.LastName);  
}
 It displays the account name perfectly fine. But for Contact FirstName, it displays: FirstName , similarly for lastname it displays:LastName.
What, I am missing, here?

Hi Manish,

Use this code:
List <Account> Res = [Select Account.Name, (Select Contact.FirstName,Contact.LastName from Account.contacts) from Account];
For(Account a:Res) {
System.debug('Account Name:' +a.name);
    for(Contact con: a.Contacts) {
		System.debug('Contact FirstName:' +con.firstname); 
		System.debug('Contact Last Name:' +con.LastName);  
	}
}

Regards,
Mahesh

SOQL should be [Select Name, (Select FirstName,lastName form Contacts) from Account]

Hi Venky,

I tried with the SOQL statement pasted above by you. It throws an error-unexpected token: Contacts

System.debug('Account Name:' +a.name);
    for(Contact con: a.Contacts) {

error-unexpected token: Contacts is fixed now. There was typo in the subquery.
However, the result is same as mentioned in my detail description. 
Any help?

Manish.

Do you have contacts associated for accounts?

You can copy Mahesh code. That should work.

I tested the above code in my DE org and able to see the results as well.

Did you enable the Person Accounts?
